Once you enter the Treehouse private drive you will feel yourself being transported into a magical world of gently flowing water, natural light, tall trees, chirping birds, rustling leaves, crickets, and frogs. You will notice the energy shift into the safe embrace of our land, protected by Springbrook Mountain. The location of the Treehouse was chosen by our then young children. We all fell in love with the magnificent camphor laurel tree growing at the edge of the seasonal creek. We all found ourselves drawn to that place, so with the help of our friends and our children we began the project of manifesting a dream into a reality - the dream of living in the tree canopy. As we worked on the Treehouse, the design was constantly changing. The whole family, especially our youngest son, contributed to the manifestation of the dream. During that time we overcame many obstacles and found solutions to build in the tree. It was an adventure, a lot of fun and we learnt a lot. It became a dwelling for our kids for a period of time, until they grew up and left to conquer the big wide world. Now it is here for you to enjoy, to reconnect with your dreams, to dive deep into your childhood playful memories where the world of fantasy and reality merge together. Here you can just be yourself, embraced by nature and view at the world from your Treehouse verandah.

If you love the outdoors - either just to chill or to actively recreate - this place is for you. As an outdoor educator, I have worked and played in the valley and surrounds for more than 25 years and I'm still discovering new things to see and do! Advancetown Lake is a short drive away with paddling, sailing and fishing and no power boats or jetskis (Yeeha!!) There is a mountain bike park on the E side of the dam. You can walk from here to Springbrook and Lamington National Parks and the glow worms at Natural Bridge are a night time "must see".

It’s cosy without feeling confined, and designed to be immediately relaxing. This experience is best suited to couples seeking a peaceful, low-key getaway. It is not a campground, caravan park, or bring-your-own caravan site, and it isn’t suitable for parties or loud gatherings. The atmosphere here is intentionally quiet and respectful, allowing all guests to fully enjoy the space. If you’re looking for a private, thoughtfully curated stay where nothing needs planning and everything is ready on arrival, this experience has been created exactly for that.

What a TREAT!! Kathryn & Phil have created such a gorgeous space to go unwind and unplug from the world. All the little details are thought of and we were created with freshly baked bread and a warm smile. Our two little dachshunds loved it as well. Just what we needed 💜

Beautiful location in a private space. Plenty of cookware. Hot shower and toilet. Cosy lounge space and comfy bed. Fire pit outside and fire place indoors for the cooler seasons. Definitely going to stay again sometime.

Weekend Trip to Crystal Creek Rainforest Treehouse

This is our third time staying at the treehouse. We love the feeling of camping without all the effort. Just turn up with food and drink and off you go. The dog loves the large grass area to run and the kids enjoy making a fire. We had a swim at the local waterhole, only 5 minutes down the road. Beds are comfortable and kitchen has all you need. Thankyou Aneta and Paul for another relaxing stay.

Kathryn was very friendly and willing to help with anything for the entire stay. She was very casual about using cabin facilities and the fireplace, looking forward to visiting again after the renovations! Oh her complimentary bread was delicious, we ended up bringing the leftovers home.

Weekend Trip to Undullah-Moore farm

We loved our stay at Undullah- Moore Farm. The Farmhouse Cottage is well appointed with all the comforts of home but the fire pit, woodford hot tub, 4wd track and spacious, private position at the top of the hill, with its extensive views of farmland and Flinders Peak, gave enough of a feel of escaping the city. The hospitality was warm and genuine, facilities spot on and the atmosphere property itself immaculate. 10/10.

We had an amazing stay at this cabin! It was incredibly beautiful, comfortable, and sparkling clean. It truly felt like a magical place. The cabin was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!!❤️

4 nights at Turkey's Nest Rainforest Cottages

Absolutely gorgeous spot for a getaway and chance to unplug from the world and relax. Would highly recommend bringing a bunch of board games, a nice puzzle and face masks for the ultimate relaxing experience. Just note that the suite is attached to the main house and you will need to walk past their front door to get to and from. But Rose and Russel are lovely and the suite still felt private.

We visited Mystic Adventures on Christmas Day as a group of four and had an absolutely amazing time. It felt like camping but with everything provided, which made the experience very comfortable and stress free. Even though it was a very hot day, we really enjoyed ourselves and made great memories. The setup was thoughtful and well organised, allowing us to relax and just enjoy the getaway. One of the highlights was the cute little park area for children with lights everywhere, which created such a lovely and welcoming atmosphere. A special mention to Kathryn, who was incredibly warm, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. She truly made us feel comfortable and added a personal touch to the whole experience. Overall, Mystic Adventures is perfect for couples, families, or friends who want a camping style experience without the hassle. We would definitely recommend it and would love to return.
